Four main gaits:Walk,trot,canter and gallop. But there are other gaits for certain breeds such as the Icelandic. There are also dressage gaits such as extended or collected trot etc. :D Answer four main gaits
There are 4 gaits (almost) every horse would have Walk Trot Canter Gallop There are 2 gaits most horses do not have Tolt (a gait between a Trot and canter) Flying pace (a fast running walk) (most Icelandic horses have these 2 gaits along with the other 4 gaits, only some other breeds may have those 2 special gaits) (when I said almost in the first line, I meant only a few horses have just three gaits)
The gaits are the different ways a horse moves his legs, for example in the trot, the horse has a 2x gait movement, the walk is a 4x movement and the canter is a 3x gait.
gallop is a gait theres walk trot pace singlefoot canter n gallop n lope Actually, a gallop is one gait itself. But if you mean "How many gaits does a horse have?" then the answer is that there are four main gaits: walk, trot, canter and gallop, and several others that only some horses have, like tolt, rack, pace, lope, and jog.
Walk Trot Canter Gallop
walk, trot, canter, gallop
No. The gaits of a horse are Walk, Trot, Canter, Gallop. They do that in the wild
A walking trail horse is simply a horse that you can take on trails at a walking speed. That's the literal meaning of the question; but as a trail rider and author of Basic Training for a Safe Trail Horse I would say that "walking trail horse" refers to a gaited breed of trail horse like the Tennessee Walker. TW's are the most common of walking horses, but there are many other gaited breeds that perform comfortable gaits that can be described as a "walking" gait. Many of these gaits are performed at speeds comparable to the gaits of trotting or cantering in non-gaited breeds.
If you are speaking of gaits like the Fox Trot and Running walk you will need a specific breed of horse as these gaits cannot be taught to ungaited horses. Also the term gaited is not really correct as all horses have gaits, but the term 'easy Gaited' is correct for horses possessing extra gaits and is becoming much more popular a term.
In horses, a gait is like what pace they are going at. The four gaits a horse has arae walk, trot,canter,and gallop. In novice + dressage you get different levels of the gaits like extended trot. Also, some breeds of horse have a special gait, the walking trot.
The Rocky Mountain Horse has the following gaits: Walk, trot, canter and an extra 'ambling' gait called a single footing gait, which can reach speeds of 6 to 16 mph.
